All of my keyboard have letters that disappear. I want permanent letters, is this the one?

Although my keyboard has had limited use, I have had no problem with letters disappearing. On one occasion I dropped the keyboard and it struck a hard object. The "8" key was knocked off but nothing broke. I was able to snap it back on but with difficulty because the catches that hold the key in place are sturdy.

I suppose by "disappear" you mean that eventually the letters wear off with use (?). I think that might depend on extent of use, intensity, and other variables involving your keyboarding practices (like long fingernails). I can tell you that the letters feel slightly raised, which might make them more durable, visually.

I'm not sure. I have not had this keyboard long enough to say either way. The manufacturer does boast of, "durable keys with laser printing and UV coating." After two months of use, it looks the same. I use it daily at work.

The keys are laser etched. This means they will wear significantly slower than keys that are only printed on, but they will not last practically forever like the old IBM keyboards that actually had a separate black piece of plastic inside the keys instead of only a top layer applied. Consider the cost of the product, you will have to pay significantly more to get that type of keyboard because they're considered a niche product and also tend to have mechanical switches in them that further raises the cost.To make any keyboard's key markings last as long as possible, only use it with clean hands, clean dirt off before it builds up much, and above all keep your fingernails trimmed short.

I had that same problem with all my previous keyboards! But the letters on this one look the same as they did when I received the keyboard. I use this keyboard every day - very amateur writer - for quite a few hours a day and they're still "all here". They haven't started to disappear bit by bit like the letters on my previous keyboards did. So, this keyboard seems to be solution so far...

I have not had it long enough to say, over time, but so far it is good. I have had others that the letters disappeared within a month, on the often used letters, so comparing tothose I would say it is better. I really love the way it is so easy to use. Comfortable typing. I do a lot of typing online and have enjoyed this keyboard more than others. And for the price, I think it can't be beat.

I am so sorry, I just don't know the answer. I keep wearing off my a,s, and n on my laptop keyboards, so I bought this to replace them. Now I can't find where I put the rest of the stickers!

What I did is a refresh on the PC (restored the pc but keeping all files and photos. use your search sidebar windows 8 to find). This worked however I'm very careful about what updates I make. The refresh wizard advised that I would need to reinstall asus smart gesture and asus usb charger plus. not sure if I will though since the keyboard is back to working order

I am sorry for what happened to your keyboard, but I have not had any problems with keys falling off. My only problelm has been the function of the keys with how one would normally type on the computer. Nothing breaking, cross my fingers.

I've had an issue with the letters not showing up after I pressed the keyboard. I realized that either the battery was low/dying or I was covering the 'red light' signal at the top when I was holding it.

My keyboard actually never worked at all.... I took it off and just use the case, which is very durable.

My delete key reversed itself after 3 months. Now it only deletes backwards! Then the arrow keys quit. Now the illumination keys don't work.

This worked fine until os 10.11 then all the extra keys and functions stopped working. I've been going round and round with Microsoft to no avail.. Apple is now working on a work around for me

I had same problem. I took to Micro solf store they were unable to fix and found it was a surface soft ware did not work properly. You can try attached with other surface to check your keyboard if it work. Otherwise your need a new keyboard. Good luck.

I can't really see why you couldn't. Whether or not this is easier to read is each persons preference. The only thing I could think of that may be an issue is that sometimes keyboards have little bumps on the "F" and "J" keys, that the stickers will not avoid. The "U" and "H" stickers avoid those bumps.

It didn't occur to me to try but I would have thought that most of the issues would lie with Android i.e. they would be independant of the keyboard itself. Does android have a key assigning function? I haven't seen one so you migth need an app. Sorry.

The keys cannot be reassigned via the keyboard. Maybe there is some software available that will remap.

You mean the keyboard doesn't work anymore? I have not had any problems with my unit and I'm very happy with it. If I had to complain it would be not being able to upgrade the 128GB RAM. Other than that I am extremely pleased. Good luck with your problem. Sorry I couldn't help.

My keyboard works. I initially had some difficulty until I figured out some minor steps that weren't noted in the directions. I'm not that tech savvy, so I'm not ssure if this helps. Sorry
